Printed frame parts to get some idea of it's size. I expected that this thing will be a bit smaller.

Updates coming soon... i guess.

So,

i noticed some mistakes in frame parts, reprinted everything and glued on cardstock. Honestly, i didn't thought that it will be so tricky (i never did such big frames before); most likely that for the final "clean" build i will print frame parts directly on cardboard.

In fact, drying parts took almost whole this time since my last update. But yesterday i finally cut them all and did a dry fit. I know that parts doesn't look really nice, but frame seem to be straight and dimensions are in order so i think that for a test it is be okay.

I'm going to glue the frame soon, also i'm preparing some first plating.

Showing frame next to keyboard is a great way to show the size of this monster. Framing gives nice impression of overall hull shape.
